Apparently "according to my knowledge"  as  a source of information.  So the
interesting question is, what does "as far as I know" mean?  At least that I
know nothing against it and that I recognize that my knowledge is incomplete
in the area at issue but taht what I do know tends to favor the view in
question.  I suspect there is also an emotional component about dodging
responsibility as well.  How much of this needs to be reproduced, if any?
